R point- tips needed

Hi
I've just joined R-point (last week) so am learning how to earn as many points as possible.
I am clicking through with 'Recurring'.
I have made my first purchase on Amazon (no points on statement yet?).
Have you any tips for a newbie??
:confused:

I am stacking up the points on Pigsback, aswell.
Clicking on 10 point adverts and answering the 2 questions+ 1 Competition.
Hope I'm not missing any hidden tricks.

A big thanks to everyone for all the help they give on this FANTASTIC site!!!
:j :j :j

    I find that if u leave the search windows open for 5 mins that the points nearly always get awarded to u,closing them down immediatley seems to alert the site u are not really shopping. Give https://www.mutualpoints.com a go, using price runner and kelco u can get 54 points aday in under 5 mins (3000 equals £20), iv downloaded a few casino sites but not used them (or deposited any money) and had 3600 points (pending) from them.

    Do you select all catagories when you are choosing your interests?

    If you are using RPoints, make sure you check all the other cashback sites and claim under the "Highest Cashback Promise" on any purchases that you make.

    I did that on a recent Dell purchase, RPoints offered 2.5% cashback, eventually got 4% from them because they matched Quidco (although they docked the £5 that quidco would have docked)

    Ogspeed, how do you get 54 points in 5 mins on Mutual points?
    It says on their homepage-
    'Search for the product you're looking for and be rewarded when you search and shop!
    Earn 1 point every time you search!
    Maximum 5 rewards per day.'

    A tip on amazon purchases on R-Points is that you get no points for them anymore unless its books. Once you have enough points you can get 10% off at amazon though using rpoints points. Which is good, and still amazon e-vochers.

    Click on free rewards and it has quite a few different options.
    The main ones being pricerunner and kelkoo.

    They send a cheque when your balance reaches 3000 points (£20)
    If you go to your profile (I think) you can opt in for clickthrough emails and how often you wish to receive them. I often get 4/5 a day, usually for 5 points but sometimes more.
